Description

本発明は、脳内の神経回路網の破綻に起因する認識機能不全、特にアルツハイマー型記憶障害の予防・改善に有効な漢方処方に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a Kampo prescription effective for the prevention and improvement of cognitive dysfunction caused by the breakdown of a neural network in the brain, particularly Alzheimer's memory impairment.

日本は、急速に高齢化社会を迎えている。老化にともなう物忘は健忘症と称されるが、健忘症は、加齢に伴う生理的な変化であり病気ではない。一方、認知症と称される痴呆症は、一度獲得した知的能力が脳の後天的な変化により著しく低下した状態を呈する脳の病気である。痴呆症の代表的なものとしてアルツハイマー病、脳血管性痴呆が知られているが、アルツハイマー病は、進行性であり、未だ有効な治療法がないため、深刻な問題となっている。
病因が不明であり、種々の薬物による治療が試みられている。
Japan is rapidly facing an aging society. Amnesia associated with aging is called amnesia, but amnesia is a physiological change with age and is not a disease. On the other hand, dementia, called dementia, is a brain disease in which the intellectual ability once acquired is markedly reduced by acquired changes in the brain. Alzheimer's disease and cerebrovascular dementia are known as typical dementia, but Alzheimer's disease is a serious problem because it is progressive and there is still no effective treatment.
The etiology is unknown and treatment with various drugs has been attempted.

臨床で抗痴呆薬として用いられているドネペジルのようなコリンエステラーゼ阻害薬は、疾患の進行を遅らせるものの疾患を治療するには至らず、且つ中程度を超えた痴呆患者には有効性が現れにくい。また神経栄養因子様作用物質に分類される薬物も抗痴呆薬候補として研究されているが、いずれも神経保護作用が主であり、神経変成環境下における神経突起伸展作用とシナプス形成作用は明確に示されていない。 A cholinesterase inhibitor such as donepezil used clinically as an anti-dementia drug does not treat the disease although it delays the progression of the disease, and is hardly effective in patients with dementia exceeding moderate. Drugs classified as neurotrophic factor-like substances have also been studied as anti-dementia drug candidates, but all of them are mainly neuroprotective, and the neurite outgrowth and synapse formation in a neurodegenerative environment are clear. Not shown.

一方、漢方を基礎とする抗痴呆薬として、例えば、丹参、川きゅう、芍薬、紅花、木香、香附子を原料とした「冠元顆粒」(特許文献1)、芍薬、蒼朮、沢瀉、茯苓、川きゅう、当帰を原料とした「当帰芍薬散」(特許文献2)が知られており、また、人参(分量1)、遠志(分量2)、菖蒲(分量1)、白茯苓(分量3)からなる「定志円」が物忘れを治すことが、漢方処方の古典「丹渓心法」「備急千金要方」に記載されている。また、人参(分量1)、遠志(分量2)、菖蒲(分量25)、白茯苓(分量50)からなるDX-9386が動物実験において記憶障害を改善することが報告されている(非特許文献1)。また、人参、朮、茯苓、黄耆、当帰、遠志、柴胡、山梔子、甘草、木香、大棗、生姜、酸棗仁、龍眼肉からなる加味帰脾湯は、虚血性脳疾患を改善することが報告されている(特許文献3)。加味帰脾湯には他にも、ドネペジルとの併用療法によりアルツハイマー病患者の自発性障害と感情障害を改善する作用があることが示されている(非特許文献2)。また、加味帰脾湯から柴胡と山梔子を抜いた処方である帰脾湯は、老年期痴呆症患者に対して認知機能改善効果を示すことが報告されている(非特許文献3)。
一方、本発明者は、人参、黄耆、遠志が神経障害後から軸索および樹状突起の再形成、シナプスの再形成作用を有することを見出してきた。(非特許文献4)
On the other hand, as an anti-dementia drug based on Kampo medicine, for example, “crown granule” (Patent Document 1) made from Dansang, Kawakyu, glaze, safflower, wood incense, and Katsuki, raw material, glaze, acupuncture, buds, acupuncture , Kawakyu, “Tokien Yakusan” made from Toki (Patent Document 2) is also known, and carrot (1), distant (2), salmon (1), birch ( The classic “Tankeishin method” and “Bikkyu Senkin Kakata” of Chinese medicine prescriptions indicate that the “determined circle” consisting of 3) cures forgetfulness. In addition, it has been reported that DX-9386, which consists of carrot (part 1), distant (part 2), cocoon (part 25), and white rabbit (part 50), improves memory impairment in animal experiments (non-patent literature). 1). In addition, Kamikisui, which consists of carrots, carrots, sea breams, jaundice, Toki, Toshi, Saiko, Yamayoko, licorice, woody incense, Daegu, ginger, sour jelly and longan meat, improves ischemic brain disease (Patent Document 3). In addition, it has been shown that Kamikisuito has an effect of improving spontaneous disorder and emotional disorder in Alzheimer's disease patients by combination therapy with donepezil (Non-patent Document 2). In addition, it has been reported that Kisui-to, which is a prescription obtained by removing Saiko and Yamakiko from Kamiki-sui, has an effect of improving cognitive function in patients with senile dementia (Non-patent Document 3).
On the other hand, the present inventor has found that ginseng, jaundice, and distantness have axonal and dendritic remodeling and synaptic remodeling actions after neuropathy. (Non-Patent Document 4)

アルツハイマー病は、神経回路網の破綻により、記憶・認知に障害を呈する症候を指す。これら有効な治療法の無い疾患に対し、既に神経回路網の障害が進行している状態からでも、神経機能を正常に近づけることのできる治療が、真に求められている。しかも患者の立場を考えると、手術を要する神経細胞移植や遺伝子治療よりは、負担の少ない投薬による治療法がより望ましい。そこで、神経細胞が障害を受けている時、あるいは受けた後からでも神経回路網を再生する薬物の開発が必要である。
本発明は、神経回路網を再生する薬物を、すでに広く使用され安全性が十分に確認されている漢方薬から見出すことを目的とする。
Alzheimer's disease refers to symptoms that impair memory and cognition due to the breakdown of neural networks. For these diseases for which there is no effective therapeutic method, there is a real need for a treatment that can bring the nerve function closer to normal even when the nerve network has already been impaired. Moreover, considering the patient's standpoint, treatment with less burden is more desirable than nerve cell transplantation and gene therapy that require surgery. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a drug that regenerates the neural network even when the nerve cells are damaged or after the damage.
An object of the present invention is to find a drug that regenerates a neural network from a herbal medicine that has already been widely used and whose safety has been sufficiently confirmed.

本発明者らは、神経回路網の破綻の細胞モデルとして、ラット大脳皮質神経の初代培養細胞に、アルツハイマー病の原因物質であるアミロイドベータの活性部分配列(Aβ(25-35))を処置し、軸索と樹状突起の萎縮、シナプス数の減少を呈する状態を作製した。この状態の神経細胞に処置することで、神経細胞の神経突起とシナプスを正常状態に戻すことのできる薬物を探索することができる。
探索方法は、例えば、試験薬物として、生薬を様々な配合比で合わせ、水で煎じ液エキスを作成し、それを上記の細胞モデルで試験する。この方法で、試験方剤エキスが神経突起伸展作用を有するかどうかを検討することができる。
さらに、本発明者らは、神経回路網の破綻の動物モデルとして、マウスの側脳室内にAβ(25-35)を単回投与し、1週間後から現れ始める空間記憶障害と、脳内の軸索と樹状突起の萎縮、シナプス数の減少を呈する状態を作製した。
The present inventors treated an active partial sequence (Aβ (25-35)) of amyloid beta, which is a causative agent of Alzheimer's disease, in primary cultured cells of rat cerebral cortical nerves as a cell model of neural network failure. A state of atrophy of axons and dendrites, and a decrease in the number of synapses was prepared. By treating nerve cells in this state, it is possible to search for drugs that can return the neurites and synapses of the nerve cells to a normal state.
In the search method, for example, as a test drug, herbal medicines are combined at various compounding ratios, a decoction extract is prepared with water, and this is tested with the above cell model. By this method, it can be examined whether or not the test agent extract has a neurite extension action.
Furthermore, as an animal model of neural network failure, the present inventors administered Aβ (25-35) once in the lateral ventricle of a mouse, and spatial memory impairment that began to appear after one week, A state in which atrophy of axons and dendrites, and decrease in the number of synapses was produced.

上記、アッセイ系で、種々の漢方処方を検討した結果、健忘症に対して使用されている帰脾湯と称される漢方処方は、細胞モデルで、神経突起伸展作用が認められ、さらに動物モデルにおいても優れた効果が認められたことから、本発明を完成するに至った。以下、本発明を詳細に説明する。 As a result of examining various Kampo prescriptions in the above assay system, the Kampo prescription called Kaisei-to, which is used for amnesia, is a cell model and has a neurite outgrowth action. As a result, an excellent effect was recognized, and the present invention was completed. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.

(方法)胎生18日齢のSDラットの大脳皮質神経細胞を分散培養した。10μMAβ(25-35)を神経細胞に処置し障害を与えた。障害誘発後の神経細胞に対して帰脾湯エキスを処置した後、リン酸化型NF-H(軸索マーカー)、MAP2(樹状突起マーカー)に対する抗体を用いた免疫染色を行い、細胞当たりの軸索、樹状突起の長さを測定した。
Test example 1
[Nerite re-extension effect]
(Method) Cerebral cortical neurons of embryonic day 18 SD rats were dispersedly cultured. 10 μMAβ (25-35) was treated to damage neurons. After treatment with Kireito extract on the nerve cells after induction of injury, immunostaining using antibodies against phosphorylated NF-H (axon marker) and MAP2 (dendritic marker) was performed. The lengths of axons and dendrites were measured.

(結果)ラット大脳皮質神経細胞の培養開始3日後に、10μMAβ(25-35)を処置した。4日後、軸索と樹状突起の著しい萎縮が認められた。ここに、帰脾湯エキスを100μg/mlで処置した、その5日後には軸索、樹状突起のいずれもが溶媒処置群に比べて有意に伸展した。 (Results) Three days after the start of culture of rat cerebral cortical neurons, 10 μMAβ (25-35) was treated. Four days later, significant atrophy of axons and dendrites was observed. Here, Kiyoto extract was treated with 100 μg / ml, and 5 days later, both axons and dendrites were significantly extended compared to the solvent-treated group.

試験例2
[空間記憶障害改善作用]
(方法)7週齢のddYマウス(雄)の右側脳室に、25 nmol Aβ(25-35)を投与した。10日後から1日1回薬物を経口投与し14日間続けた。薬物投与を始めた7日後から、モーリス水迷路にて空間記憶の獲得試験を5日間行った。獲得試験の最終日で薬物投与を中止し、その3日後に水迷路にて空間記憶の保持試験を行った。
Test example 2
[Spatial memory impairment improvement effect]
(Method) 25 nmol Aβ (25-35) was administered to the right ventricle of a 7-week-old ddY mouse (male). The drug was orally administered once a day after 10 days and continued for 14 days. Seven days after the start of drug administration, a spatial memory acquisition test was conducted in the Morris water maze for 5 days. The drug administration was discontinued on the last day of the acquisition test, and a spatial memory retention test was conducted in the water maze 3 days later.

(結果)25 nmolAβ(25-35)の脳室内投与により、マウスの記憶獲得能力と記憶保持能力が有意に低下した。薬物を投与し始める、Aβ(25-35)投与の7日後には既に、記憶障害が始まり、軸索、樹状突起、シナプス密度の減少が大脳皮質と海馬で顕著に認められ、この状態は少なくとも30日後まで継続することを確認している。
帰脾湯エキスを水に溶解し、100mg/kgあるいは1000mg/kgで連続経口投与した。いずれの投与量においても、帰脾湯エキス投与により記憶獲得能力が有意に回復した。記憶保持試験においてもいずれの投与量においても帰脾湯エキスによる有意な記憶保持能力の回復が認められた。いずれの試験においても、100mg/kg投与量の方がより作用が強く、対照群を凌ぐ記憶障害改善効果を示した。
(Results) Intraventricular administration of 25 nmol Aβ (25-35) significantly reduced the memory acquisition ability and memory retention ability of mice. 7 days after administration of Aβ (25-35), memory impairment began, and axons, dendrites, and synaptic density decreased markedly in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus. Confirmed to continue until at least 30 days later.
Kiyoto extract was dissolved in water and continuously administered orally at 100 mg / kg or 1000 mg / kg. At any dose, the ability to acquire memory was significantly recovered by administration of Kaiseito extract. In the memory retention test, significant recovery of memory retention ability was observed with Kiyoto extract at any dose. In any test, the dose of 100 mg / kg was more effective and showed an effect of improving memory impairment over the control group.
